Students will write one final essay dealing with a single text of their choice among the assigned readings. Successful essays will raise a critical question about the text and present an original
argument that has a coherent structure. Writing a good essay will grow out of reading the text closely, identifying the main issues that the text explores, and thinking about how the text expresses those ideas.Students are encouraged to consult with one of the instructors through the office-hour meetings or by email,prior to the submission of each essay
